Log in to your WordPress dashboard and navigate to Donations >> Settings >> MailOptin

Select your email marketing software (e.g., Mailchimp, AWeber, MailerLite, etc.) and the email list to add customers.

If you don’t use an email marketing service, you can save your customers in WordPress by selecting “MailOptin Leads” as your integration. Learn more about MailOptin Leads.

You can also pass additional or extra data about your customer besides their names and email addresses by mapping their profile data to the corresponding custom fields in your email marketing software.

Tags can also be assigned to them.

Finally, save your changes.

Donations via Specific Forms

To add donors that made donations via specific donation forms to particular lists or assign specific tags, open the form edit page in GiveWP.

Scroll to the MailOption sidebar metabox section. Select your email marketing software, the list to add them to, map custom fields, and the tags to assign to them.

When you’re done, please save your changes before leaving.

Setting Up Newsletter Subscription Checkbox

By default, MailOptin automatically subscribes donors to your email list after every successful donation. Follow the guide below to add an opt-in checkbox to the GiveWP donation form and seek permission before adding them to your email marketing list.

On the GiveWP MailOptin settings page (Donations >> Settings >> MailOptin), change the Subscription Method setting to “Ask for permission” to configure the optin checkbox label.

Remember to save your changes.
